Christ the Lord is risen!
Now is the hour of darkness past;
Christ hath assumed his reigning power.
Behold the great accuser cast
down from the skies, to rise no more:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Christ the Lord is risen!
'Twas by thy blood, immortal Lamb,
thine armies trod the tempter down;
'twas by thy word and powerful Name
they gained the battle and renown;
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Christ the Lord is risen!
Rejoice, ye heavens! let every star
shine with new glories round the sky!
Saints, while ye sing the heavenly war,
raise your Redeemer's Name on high!
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
